He said the minster has refused the bribe and if the investigations into the floating armory fail to make satisfactory progress, he would reveal all the details to the public in two weeks.

The minister, to whom the bribe was offered, holds a prominent role in the government and was in the first batch of MPs who left the United People’s Freedom Alliance (UPFA) to support Maithripala Sirisena.

Senaratne said that he is disappointed that the government has not punished the corrupt, as promised, but he added that he will reveal all the culprits before the coming general election.

Thank god! Finally! We are going to get something in two weeks time other than allegations. Either a good progress into the investigation , which is going to be seized by the media and publish for all to read about OR the name of the culprit. I hope somebody will finally be produced before the court – specially, progress or not – Bribing is a serious offense. So the minister with all his security and other privileges should give the name(s) of the bribe offerers to the law enforcing agencies for the law to run its course. Otherwise he is committing a criminal offense by hiding them or just Bull—-ing.
